Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: definition and classification of severity [PDF]
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible and is usually both progressive and associated with an abnormal inflammatory response of the lungs to noxious particles or gases, particularly ...

A poroelastic model coupled to a fluid network with applications in lung modelling [PDF]
Here we develop a lung ventilation model, based a continuum poroelastic representation of lung parenchyma and a 0D airway tree flow model. For the poroelastic approximation we design and implement a lowest order stabilised finite element method. This component is strongly coupled to the 0D airway tree model. The framework is applied to a realistic lung

Rehabilitation for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients exercise training component [PDF]
Even though Barach in 1964 advocated physical exercise for patients with chronic lung diseases (1), it was only in early 1970s that a liberal use of exercise training was included in pulmonary rehabilitation programmes (2).

Prediction of COPD Using Machine Learning, Clinical Summary Notes, and Vital Signs [PDF]
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic inflammatory lung disease that causes obstructed airflow from the lungs. In the United States, more than 15.7 million Americans have been diagnosed with COPD, with 96% of individuals living with at least one other chronic health condition.
